## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

Export hotels and nightly prices from Google Hotels for any destination and dates. Give destinations or searches and the Actor returns one row per hotel with price per night and total, stars, rating, reviews, address, phone, website, coordinates and check-in times. Schedule it and hotels whose price changed are flagged. Rate shopping, travel apps, market research and hotel lead lists at $0.002 per hotel.

### What you get

**Hotel** (one row each): `name`, `url`, `propertyType`, `stars`, `rating`, `reviewsCount`, `pricePerNight`, `priceText`, `totalPrice`, `currency`, `nights`, `address`, `phone`, `website`, `mapsUrl`, `latitude`, `longitude`, `checkInTime`, `checkOutTime`, `description`, `imageUrl`, `position`, `id`.

**Search** on every row: `search`, `checkIn` and `checkOut`.

**Changes** on scheduled runs: `priceChanged` and `previousPrice` for hotels whose nightly price moved since the previous run of the same search.

Searches without results return nothing and are not charged.

### How to use it

1. Open the **Input** tab.
2. Add **Destinations or searches**, one per line: `Madrid`, `hotels near Times Square` or `4 star hotels in Lisbon` (up to 50 per run).
3. Set **Check-in** and **Check-out**. With no dates the Actor searches 30 days ahead for two nights, so a schedule never expires.
4. Set **Max hotels per search**.
5. Click **Start** and export the rows as JSON, CSV or Excel.
6. To track prices, schedule the Actor with fixed dates.

### Input

```json
{
  "searches": ["hotels in Madrid", "4 star hotels in Lisbon"],
  "checkIn": "2026-12-10",
  "checkOut": "2026-12-12",
  "country": "ES",

### Pricing

Pay per event: **$0.002 per hotel** and **$0.001 per price change** detected on a scheduled run. Empty searches are free. A search of 40 hotels costs $0.08.

### Limits and notes

- Each search returns about 18 hotels. For more, general searches such as `hotels in Madrid` are repeated by star category and merged, up to about 90. Named hotels and searches that already mention stars are not widened, so split large cities by neighbourhood for wider coverage.
- Prices come back in the currency Google chooses for the request, which the `currency` field states on every row. They use Google's default occupancy of two adults.
- `pricePerNight` is the lowest price Google shows, and it is null when the hotel shows none for those dates. The list of booking sites per hotel is not included.

### Related Actors

- **Google Flights Scraper**: fares for the same destination and dates.
- **Google Maps Places Scraper**: places and businesses from Google Maps.
- **Airbnb Search Scraper**: short-term rentals.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
